471877 ÷ 47 
We want to figure out the number of times 471877 can be divided by 47.

Going ahead to step 1:
If we divide 4 by 47, we get 0 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Include the next digit (7) from the dividend after 4, then repeat: 47 / 47

Let's proceed to step 2:
When dividing 47 by 47, we get 1 with a remainder of 0.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Subtract 47 from 47 to get 0.
Append the next digit (1) from the dividend to 0 and continue with: 1 / 47

Moving on to step 3:
47 can be fit into 1 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 10.0
Subtract 0 from 1 to get 1.
Grab the next digit (8) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 18 / 47

Step 4:
18 divided by 47 is 0 with a remainder of 18.
Put 0 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 100.0
Deduct 0 from 18 and we're left with 18.
Append the next digit (7) from the dividend to 18 and continue with: 187 / 47

On to step 5:
When dividing 187 by 47, we get 3 with a remainder of 46.
Use 3 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 1003.0
Subtract 141 from 187 to get 46.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 46, then repeat: 467 / 47

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 467 by 47, we get 9 with a remainder of 44.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 10039.0
The remainder is 44 after subtracting 423 from 467.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 440, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 7:
If we divide 440 by 47, we get 9 and a remainder of 17.
Record the quotient 9 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10039.9
If we take 423 away from 440, we end up with 17.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 170, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
170 divided by 47 is 3 with a remainder of 29.
The number 3 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10039.93
Deduct 141 from 170 and we're left with 29.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 290, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
290 divided by 47 is 6 with a remainder of 8.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10039.936
If we take 282 away from 290, we end up with 8.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 10:
When dividing 80 by 47, we get 1 with a remainder of 33.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 10039.9361
The remainder is 33 after subtracting 47 from 80.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 330, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
47 can be fit into 330 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 1.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10039.93617
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 329 from 330.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
47 goes into 10 0 times with a remainder of 10.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10039.93617
Deduct 0 from 10 and we're left with 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 100, and continue the process.

Step 13:
47 goes into 100 2 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 2 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 10039.9361702
If we subtract 94 from 100, we get 6.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 60, and continue the process.

On to step 14:
The number 47 fits into 60 1 times, leaving a remainder of 13.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 10039.93617021
Subtract 47 from 60 to get 13.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 130, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 10039.93617021 with a balance of 1.3e-08.
